ORMA
A 2.3 km loop near Sesto / Sexten, imported from the OpenStreetMap hiking network (trail 19). Passed automated dog-suitability screening: no via ferrata, ladders, or alpine-grade (T3+) sections on record. Direction shown climbs more gradually (computed from elevation data).
This is a true loop: it closes back on its own start point, so there's no return leg to plan; the 184 m of climbing is steady rather than steep, a fair ask for most fit dogs; no water points are mapped on this route, so carry everything your dog will drink.
Mapped start suggestion — Lift station Rotwand - Croda Rossa, 12 m from the route. Check current access before travelling.
Use the live forecast, check local access information and be ready for changing mountain conditions.
Based on mapped route data and available ORMA sources. Check local access rules and current conditions before setting out.
